To distribute the load among our volunteers, time will be scheduled in discrete blocks of time each day. Volunteers will be needed for specific tasks, such as manning the "official" tent, handling merchandise sales, or supporting vendors when they need something (or to take a break), and for general support as the events of the day demand. In most cases no special skills are required. In addition to the three days of the event (Friday Nov. 11 thru Sunday Nov. 13), additional help will be appreciated on Thursday (Nov 10) during the venue setup.

We have some vendors who travel considerable distances alone to set up and operate their booths at Native Rhythms. Help in setting up tents, tables, setting out merchandise, etc. on Thursday and then tearing it all down and packing it up on Sunday is especially appreciated. If this is an area in which you are especially interested, include that in your e-mail to our volunteer coordinator, Susan Graves.

If you are local to Brevard County or plan to visit us for this event and would like to volunteer some of your time to help make this event a success, send an e-mail message to Susan as well.
